*ESPRESSIONE* v.e.p.

Let the beauty we love be what we do. Our souls are dancing with you, without feet, they dance. ***can you see them when I whisper in your ear?*** [self-expression] http://www.neteditor.it/users/persaarrivo-all-alba La verità è che, di natura (e non so come sia), faccio errori d'ortografia.

When they realized women were using their sacks to make clothes for their children, flour mills started using flowered fabric for their sacks. The label was designed to wash out.

holy fuck that’s the cutest marketing scheme i’ve ever heard of 

‘buy our flour it’s going to make the nicest bread and the sweetest dress!’ 

yes thank you ok sold

[professorsparklepants]

There was also a chicken feed company that did this. My great-grandmother used to recycle the chicken feed bags to make dresses for my grandmother. That was also a pretty common practice; you can read about it in the Kit series of the American Girl books.

Okay but think about being a little girl wearing flour-sack dresses because your family can’t afford dress fabrics, and you’re always embarrassed because everyone else knows. And then one day you get to saunter into school showing off your cute little flowery dress. Because a company decided to add something to its product for a reason other than just making money for itself. Isn’t that great?

They made pretty nice clothes, too, as flour sack fabric has to be fine and tightly woven to prevent the flour from working its way through.

When WWII hit, it amped up and it wasn’t just children wearing them.  Apparel fabrics were rationed, but flour sack fabric wasn’t.  Flour companies started competing to see who can make the prettiest, most appealing flour sack flower print.  If you look at some 40s war-era patterns, they have interesting seam lines designed to utilize the narrower fabric widths of sacks instead of bolt yardage.

Just a reminder, but you do not need to “earn” being tired.

You’re allowed to be tired, even if you haven’t “done” anything and you’re allowed to be tired even if you did less than someone else.

Being tired is a normal thing your body does for a whole plethora of reasons, and is a basic bodily function. You don’t need to “earn” basic bodily functions, no matter what anyone else tells you.

Seizure First Aid. 

Learn it. Share it. Know it. Use it. 

[king-in-yellow]

100% correct medical information on tumblr for once; also consider calling 911 if you don’t know how often the person has seizures and ESPECIALLY if the seizure has lasted 5 minutes or more (which is why the watch is critical)

[lukesvalentine-blog1]

I have epilepsy so making sure the word is out on how to help people who do have seizures means a lot to me.

[gallusrostromegalus]

I’ve got realtives with Epilepsy and I can promise this is 100% what you are supposed to do. It’s also normal for people to be very tired and confused right after a siezure, so be sure to stay with them until help or someone they know arrives.
